Abstract

Un evaluador de palés incluye una estación de posicionamiento de palés para posicionar un palé en un transportador, y una estación de impacto de palés adyacente al transportador y alineada con la estación de posicionamiento de palés. La estación de posicionamiento de palés incluye un brazo móvil de empuje del palé entre una posición retraída y una posición de posicionamiento de palés. La estación de impacto del palé incluye un ensamblaje del carro para impactar el palé y un mecanismo de enganche acoplado al ensamblaje del carro. Un controlador mueve el brazo de empuje del palé a la posición retraída para recibir el palé para el posicionamiento, y mueve el brazo de empuje del palé a la posición de posicionamiento del palé para mover el palé hacia la estación de impacto del palé hasta que un lado de impacto del palé está alineado con un plano de referencia de impacto. El controlador también opera el mecanismo de enganche para elevar el ensamblaje del carro, y para liberar el ensamblaje del carro cuando una altura del ensamblaje del carro corresponde a una altura de liberación deseada, de manera tal que una fuerza de impacto predeterminada golpee el palé en el plano de referencia de impacto.A pallet evaluator includes a pallet positioning station for positioning a pallet on a conveyor, and a pallet impact station adjacent to the conveyor and aligned with the pallet positioning station. The pallet positioning station includes a mobile arm for pushing the pallet between a retracted position and a pallet positioning position. The pallet impact station includes a cart assembly for impacting the pallet and a latch mechanism attached to the cart assembly. A controller moves the pallet push arm to the retracted position to receive the pallet for positioning, and moves the pallet push arm to the pallet positioning position to move the pallet toward the pallet impact station until a The impact side of the pallet is aligned with an impact reference plane. The controller also operates the latch mechanism to raise the cart assembly, and to release the cart assembly when a height of the cart assembly corresponds to a desired release height, such that a predetermined impact force hits the pallet at the impact reference plane.
